Can we start ignoring Santorum now? ALL of us? Please?

GOP "candidate" Rick Santorum dials up his crazy just a little higher, when he states (on TELEVISION!) that separation of church and state makes it tough for him to keep his lunch down. Can we all just agree that he's the scariest presidential candidate in history? Just when we thought Bachmann was as crazy as one could get.

His argument is that separation of church and state demands that people of faith have no role in what he calls "the public square." Laughably, his idea of including people of faith in politics is applying their rules and beliefs to people who do not subscribe to them. See his views on abortion, birth control, etc. He admits to wanting to adhere to BIBLICAL standards when making public policies.

But yeah, Rick -- this is TOTALLY about excluding people of faith and not protecting others from being oppressed by Christian rules that they do not recognize. YOU FIGURED US OUT.
